While Morrissey famously sang Meat Is Murder, it seems fake (i"e. 'processed') meat is even worse: cancer-inducing.
I particularly like this paragraph:
Processed meats include bacon, sausage, hot dogs, sandwich meat, packaged ham, pepperoni, salami and virtually all red meat used in frozen prepared meals. They are usually manufactured with a carcinogenic ingredient known as sodium nitrite. This is used as a color fixer by meat companies to turn packaged meats a bright red color so they look fresh.They later make sure to not lump fresh red meat into the same categories, but still, in many supermarkets, frozen food and crap meat are just about the only affordable shit available.
And the list of shit meat is actually really extensive: beef jerky, manufactured sausages, hot dogs, bacon, sandwich meat, frozen pizza with meat, canned soup with meat, frozen meals with meat, ravioli and meat pasta foods, kids' pre-arranged meals with meat, and:
Nearly all red meats sold at public schools, restaurants, hospitals, hotels and theme parksI like that it includes hospitals, of all fucking places.
So: check the ingredients on everything you purchase, and don’t buy anything made with sodium nitrite or monosodium glutamate (also known as MSG, that salt-like ingredient in chips and many buffets that tricks your brain into craving the food).
Or don't. We all need to die of something.
